## Minestarters Atlas summary

Freeman Gold Corp. has filed a NI 43-101 Technical Report supporting a Feasibility Study for the Lemhi Gold Project in Idaho. The base case study, using a gold price of US$3,650/oz, reports an after-tax NPV\(5%\) of US$695.6 million, a 34.4% IRR, and a 1.0 million ounce Proven &amp; Probable reserve with a 15.2-year mine life.

Reasoning: The filing of a Feasibility Study for a 1.0 Moz gold project with robust economics at conservative prices is a major de-risking milestone.

- Positive factor: Strong base case economics with US$695.6M NPV\(5%\) and 34.4% IRR

- Positive factor: Significant leverage to gold price demonstrated in sensitivity analysis

- Positive factor: Large 1.0 Moz Proven &amp; Probable reserve base

- Positive factor: Long mine life of 15.2 years

- Positive factor: Conservative gold price assumption of US$3,650/oz

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
